New Song Available for Valkyrie Invaders
Players of Valkyrie Invaders can now download a new song to learn using the game - "There's Music In The Air". Written by G.F. Root, think civil war era march meets Coldplay. This needs four octaves, so you really need a keyboard to play it. The qwerty virtual piano runs out of keys. Download and extract either zip or rar version into the songs folder. http://downloads.sourceforge.net/musicgames/musicinairsong.zip http://downloads.sourceforge.net/musicgames/musicinairsong.rar

New music game Valkyrie Invaders
The Million Musician Challenge (MMC) is pleased to announce the release of the new game Valkyrie Invaders, version 0.820. In this new take on the Space Invaders genre, you don't move your ship. Instead, you control an array of lasers, each operated by the keys of your keyboard. If you have a piano keyboard use that. Otherwise the game will turn your computer keyboard into a piano. Shoot the Valkyrie vessels when they are vulnerable crossing the ice zone, otherwise they become untouchable once they've passed the zone. Each time you complete a phase of music, you'll advance through space. Watch out for the mystery vehicle that appears sometimes when you scroll. It releases crystal balls, and if you puncture them you release crystals. Collect enough, and earn an extra life. You could think of it as Guitar Hero for piano, but using a real instrument rather than a simplifed controller.

sgrep (sorted grep)
Sgrep (sorted grep) is a much faster alternative to traditional Unix grep when searching large files, because sgrep searches sorted input files using a fast binary search to find matching lines.
